In related news, the Green Party called upon the director of Czech
Television, Jiří Janeček, to resign over the airing of the commercial.
The television removed the commercial after a wave of public condemnation
and has since filed a lawsuit against the National Party. Czech Television
stated on Sunday that neither the television nor its director comments on
what politicians say during the course of their pre-election campaigns.
Czech law compels broadcasters to run all commercials for political
parties, however other laws prohibit the dissemination of fascism and hate
speech in the media.
